Developed for use as a cut flower, 'Limit' produces long-lasting sprays of white, green-eyed "daisies" on tall stems. The 2.5- to 3-inch-wide (6.5 to 7.5 cm), single to semi-double blooms appear in autumn under "natural" conditions, but greenhouse-grown specimens will flower 8 weeks after 2 weeks of "long-night" treatment (13.5 hours or more). This vegetatively propagated mum was introduced by Yoder Brothers of Barberton, Ohio.

The double creamy-white blooms of Linda™ White have pale yellow centers and add a bright touch to the fall garden. Like other decorative mums, it is a heavy-flowering selection that adopts a uniform cushion habit.

The double-flowered garden chrysanthemum Lisa™ Yellow produces masses of bright yellow blossoms on densely branched, dome-shaped, 8- to 14-inch (20 to 35 cm) plants. The 2- to 2.5-inch-wide (5 to 6 cm), many-petaled blooms open in late summer and early autumn, midway in the fall "mum" season. This cultivar was introduced by Yoder Brothers of Barberton, Ohio, and is available only as vegetatively propagated plants.

The showy blooms and pungent, lobed leaves of garden chrysanthemums are staples...

The chrysanthemum Little Rock™ produces masses of yellow-eyed "daisies" with purple, white-tipped petals. They are borne on bushy, dome-shaped, 12- to 16-inch (30 to 40 cm) plants. The 4-inch-wide (10 cm), single to semi-double blooms appear in autumn under "natural" conditions, but greenhouse-grown specimens can be brought into flower at other seasons. This vegetatively propagated mum was introduced and patented by the Dutch firm Fides Goldstock Breeding B.V. It is grown and sold as a seasonal container...

This "anemone"-type chrysanthemum produces clusters of semi-double, lavender-pink, yellow-eyed blooms above compact mounds of lobed, pungently scented leaves. Flowering begins in later summer or early autumn and continues for several weeks.

Like most bedding (or "decorative") mums, this herbaceous perennial prefers full sun and a fertile, well-drained growing medium. Although typically employed as a seasonal annual, it can be used as a hardy perennial in USDA hardiness zones 6 through 9. Pinch...

The hardy chrysanthemum Marilyn™ White produces masses of double white blossoms on densely branched, dome-shaped, 12- to 18-inch (30 to 45 cm) plants. The 2-inch-wide (5 cm), many-petaled blooms open in late summer and early autumn, midway in the fall "mum" season. Marilyn™ Series mums were introduced by Yoder Brothers of Barberton, Ohio, and are available only as vegetatively propagated plants.

Grown for cutting and for greenhouse displays, 'May Shoesmith' produces large, rounded, double white blossoms with incurved petals. The 5- to 6-inch-wide (12.5 to 15 cm), many-petaled blooms appear in autumn under "natural" conditions, but greenhouse-grown specimens can be brought into flower at other seasons, with plants blooming 2 to 3 months after 3 weeks of "long nights" (13.5 hours or more). This vegetatively propagated chrysanthemum was developed in the late 1960s by Leonard H. Shoesmith of...

The garden chrysanthemum Megan™ Pink produces masses of purple-pink, yellow-eyed blooms on densely branched, dome-shaped, 12- to 16-inch (30 to 40 cm) plants. The 2-inch-wide (5 cm), double to semi-double blooms open from red-purple buds in late summer and early autumn, midway in the fall "mum" season. Plants grown under artificial conditions can be "forced" into flower at other seasons, but these "out-of-season" blooms are more daisy-like. This cultivar was introduced by Yoder Brothers of Barberton,...

The pretty rounded pompon blooms of ‘Messina’ are small and creamy white. This vigorous selection is heavy-flowering and adopts a uniform cushion habit.

In spring, this clump-forming herbaceous perennial puts forth dense stems lined with medium green, fragrant, lobed leaves. In late spring to early summer it should be pinched back to encourage a more uniform shape and to increase the density of flower buds for fall. It begins flowering in early to mid- fall and continues for several weeks...
